Dood… where have you BEEN? *facepalm*(Young Bum, 8:11am KST) @mjjeje lolol Are you back in Seoul??(Jaejoong, 9:17am KST) @bums1313 I came back to Seoul ages ago~

Firstly, I sincerely thank you for your unending love and cheers for JYJ.

Despite a situation where JYJ was unable to do activities in Japan due to their Avex contract suspension, JYJ’s worldwide album as well as activities have received great support, and I am constantly grateful.

Due to the Tohoku Earthquake that occurred last month, while the whole Japan was struck by grief, JYJ grieved as well, with the emotions of a family.

So, for the sake of repaying everybody for their love, we planned a charity concert in hopes that we would recover from the Tohoku Earthquake as soon as possible. However, even though we pushed forward with the thoughts of wanting to do whatever we can, regardless of our intention, the cancellation of the concert, as well as other troubles occurred. The tickets had already been sold, and to everybody who had been looking forward to the concert, we apologise for the inconvenience caused.

When I thought about the Japanese fans who had been waiting for JYJ’s performance for a long time, I decided that we cannot showcase a slipshod performance. We considered cancelling the performance, but to keep the promise that we made to the fans who have been silently waiting and believing in JYJ, we decided that the performance will go on.

I will do my utmost to ensure that the performance be held as planned.
For the Japanese fans, this concert is not just a one-time event, please take this to be a sign that JYJ will be starting activities in Japan from now on.
Therefore, the location for this concert may be rather poor, and may be lacking. Please believe in our sincerity, and we hope that everyone will be able to support us.

From now on, JYJ will not give in to such pressures, as long as it is a place where the Japanese fans can listen to JYJ’s music, we will be there.
For the sake of repaying the trust of the Japanese fans, I will fight with all I have so that they can once again listen to JYJ’s music and stories.

Dear Japanese fans.
As always, please continue to be a pillar of support that JYJ can believe in, and give them your strength.

JYJ has filed a lawsuit in Japan against their entertainment company Avex for the reason that it interfered with the concert with which to aid Japan’s damages due to the large earthquakes. Avex has revealed its official position on this issue.

On the 28th, Avex through its official home page dismissed JYJ’s arguments, saying: “Avex legally has the right to JYJ’s management in Japan. Our response (in blocking the concert) is only just and natural to the actions that violate that right (for us to manage JYJ).”

Avex revealed: “This current event is one in which the organize ZAK and JYJ’s Korean entertainment company C-JeS Entertainment has planned without prior permission from Avex. Avex has protested strongly multiple times at this but it was not accepted, and the sales of tickets were unilaterally continued. Although this is the natural action by Avex who holds the legal right we not only received complaints but also the directors were also threatened.”

Avex has revealed its official position: “Currently the reason that JYJ has ceased its activities in Japan is because the lawsuit on the confirmation of the exclusive contract is still maintained in Korea. We will do our best that the lawsuit problems in Korea will all be resolved and Avex can again manage JYJ and also to the aim that they can begin working again as TVXQ in Japan.”

At the same time, JYJ filed for two injunctions in the Tokyo District Court, arguing that: “Avex has engaged in an unjust act in interfering with the concert to aid Japan’s damages from the earthquakes that was to be held on April 5.” At this, Avex has revealed their official position that “to do so was only a just act in order to protect our legal rights” and the issue is gathering attention.

Avex still believes that JYJ will let the company manage them again in Japan after all of these bullsh*t that they’ve been doing to the trio? Get real and cut the crap, Avex! With what you’re doing to them, I’m sure it will take a lot of effort to get the trust of these boys again. You’re just as bad as SM Entertainment!

There was an announcement on April 5 this year, that JUNSU/JEJUNG/YUCHUN (exclusive artists of our company, hereinafter named “JJY”) will hold a charity support event (hereinafter called “this event”) for the Tohoku Kanto Earthquake Disaster.

This event was planned without receiving any permission from our company, which holds the exclusive management rights for JJY in Japan.

Our company has protested multiple times to the organizer ZAK Corporation (hereinafter named “ZAK Corp”) and JJY’s Korean management company, C-JeS ENTERTAINMENT, Co.ltd (hereinafter named “C-Jes Corp” ). However, they have not listened to our protests, and forced through with the ticket sales unilaterally.

Concerning our company’s above handlings, we have received many comments and requests from JJY fans that this event should push through. Or, that since the sole purpose is for charity, we should especially dissolve the exclusive contract. On the other hand, we have received protests from multiple antisocial forces. Furthermore, we were under duress that our president should be harmed, etc.

However, our company holds the exclusive rights for JJY’s activities in Japan, and we have just taken actions for the infringement rightfullly and properly.

Additionally, as we have announced in our press release of September 16 last year, there remains to be compliance problems such as the criminal record of the President of C-JeS in assaulting/blackmailing an artist (of whom he was in charge of). Moreover, the exclusive contract declaratory judgment is still going on in Korea. Therefore, we have no other choice than to suspend the activities of JJY until these are settled.

In spite of the above circumstances, ZAK Corp and C-JeS have in their joint names, and, as ZAK Corp by itself, have filed two provisional dispositions against our company to the Tokyo District Court, claiming that our company’s handlings have no legitimate basis.

Hereafter, our company will contend our legitimacy at the judicature.

Our company does not think that the JJY members themselves are aware of everything that is happening.
Our company wishes that the JYJ members will understand the situation correctly and the real intention of our company.
Additionally, as we have been consistently commenting, our company long for the day where the compliance and legal problems in Korea will be resolved, and that our company can once again manage JJY. Furthermore, to resume the artists’ activities as Tohoshinki . We will do our best in the future.

For the fans who support JJY, we understand that we are making all of you worry.
We appreciate your kind understanding on the above.

Male group JYJ member Kim Jaejoong recently released pictures taken with actors Song Joongki and Lim Juhwan on their trip to Busan.

Jaejoong tweeted the picture on the afternoon of the 26th, with the caption, “The fish is huge!”

In the picture, Jaejoong, Song Joongki, Lim Juhwan and friends went to the aquarium. Jaejoong, especially, looked really cute wearing his black toque. It seems like Jaejoong and Song Joongki were shocked by jaw-droppingly large fish.

Then, Jaejoong also tweeted, “Looking forward to the Buscan concert. Yoochun-ah, hurry up and get better!” and then posted a picture of everyone posing by the beach.

Netizens immediately commented with comments such as “Team Pretty Boys going on trip!”, “Jaejoong is so cute!”, “Looking at all the pretty boys together,” and “Busan seemed interesting.”
